gsrding Their Status.
WASHINGTON, October 25th.-At the ses-
sion of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion to-day Clarence Seward counsel for
the Adams Express Company, argued that
the Act, upon its face, showed that Con-
gress had no intent to include express COM
panies. He said that so far as he knew
there had been no complaint against the
express company, nor any petition that the
Government should interfere. For these
reasons, he argued, the intent of the law
was to regulate and control corporations
which the Government created, and in
nowise to control those which merely
leased railroads.
Theodore n. Pomeroy spoke in behalf of
the American National and Wells, Fargo &
Company Express Companies. He detailed
the origin, history and legal status of those
companies.

THE COMING EVENT.
Preparations for the Execution of the
Anarchist Murderers.

CHICAGO, October r25th.-Preparations are
already being silently made for the great
anti-Anarchist drama of November 11th.
Already, it is asserted, orders have been
given to members of the Second Regiment
of Infantry, Illinois National Guard, that
they will be required to be on duty for a
full week prior to November, at their arm
cry. The probability is that the First Reg
iment will be called upon to do the same.
Police preparations around the Jail are
extensive. The Sheriff has already de-
cided to limit the number of those present
to those that the law requires to be present,
and to very few representatives. The
gloom which has marked the condemned
men for several days continues to deepen
on all, except Parsons, who keeps up ex-
cellent spirits.

reyes IN England.
LONDON, October 25th.-There has been
q, great deal said in some Radical papers
about an order that has been issued by the
Treasury abolishing system of providing
special steamers at the cost of the State foI
the members of the royal family crossing
between England and the Continent. One
journal attributes the reform to Labouchere
and another to Conybeare which last
theory is penetrating to the extreme depths
of absurdity.
Truth exuljs over it in triumph. The
fact is, several years ago the Queen was de-
slrous OF putting an end to this free pas
sage arrangement, but advised not to bv
some pedants about the Court, who main
tanned that she would thereby set bad
precedent. A few months ago the matter
again came before her, when she intimated
to Lord Salisbury that she thought it desir-
able to stop special packets. The order has
now been issued.
